Stuttering has mystified researchers for centuries, but a new mouse model that mimics speech patterns of humans who stutter has provided researchers with more insight on the disorder. In a study ...
For decades, neuroscience textbooks described the inside of a mouse’s nose as a loosely organized patchwork: olfactory ...
Biologists have found that a simple interaction between just two genes determines the patterns of fur coloration that camouflage mice against their background, protecting them from many predators. The ...
The inside of a mouse’s nose looks chaotic under a standard microscope: millions of sensory neurons packed into a thin, mucus ...
Scientists have found novel patterns of ultrasonic vocalizations in a genetic mouse model of autism, adding a unique element to the available mouse behaviors that capture components of the human ...
In the understory of Central American cloud forests, musical mice trill songs to one another. Now a study of the charismatic creatures reveals how their brains orchestrate these rapid-fire duets. The ...
